Chapter 331: Dealing
She didn't think that the other party was attracted by her stunning beauty. After all, he had his sister as an example. The man had set his sights on her sister in the past.
So putting aside the impossible reasons, the truth remained. This person must have wanted to capture her and threaten her sister!
He was so anxious that he shook the reins twice.
Dead horse, why don't you just kick your hooves and run away!
Lightning, who was urged to hurry, finally looked back, and the rebelliousness in the horse's eyes was obvious.
Who are you? I should listen to you.
A man and a horse faced off, as did a woman and a man. In the cold late autumn, Jiang Han was sweating profusely from anxiety.
Finally, she had no other choice but to jump out of the car again. This time, she used courtesy before force, picking up her skirt and running away while saying some nice words to make amends.
"Brother Ji, this horse is out of its mind today, and I'm quite hungry. Let's say goodbye now. I'm going to ask Sister Jingshu for a cup of tea first. Goodbye!"
Watching the goose yellow figure running away like a frightened deer, Ji Yunzhi reached out and took the reins to drive the carriage, following slowly all the way.
"What? Sister Jingshu went back home?!"
"Yes, Miss Jiang Er."
The old servant who stayed behind at the farm certainly recognized Jiang Han. In the past, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family had brought her friends to the farm for an outing, and the second daughter of the Jiang family had come here twice with the current queen.
So his attitude was very respectful and polite.
"My eldest daughter did stay here for a few days some time ago, but the son-in-law came over personally and took her back to the Yang family."
Oh, yes, Sister Jingshu married Yang Cheng, the eldest son of the Minister of Rites, at the beginning of this spring. Ji Minzhi had heard that the couple had an argument over a concubine, and Sister Jingshu had come to the farm to relax out of anger.
But why didn’t you wait for me and went back first?
What should I do now?
I finally forced myself to run all the way to the shelter with my life hanging on, but the person who could provide me with protection actually went home early?
Looking up, she saw that the sun had already moved towards the treetops in the west, and her face was full of anxiety.
Ji Yunzhi, who was slowly driving the carriage, stretched out his long legs, got off the carriage, and walked over with unhurried steps.
"Old Qi, ask someone to clean up a room and let the Second Miss of the Jiang family rest for a while."
This self-evident order made Lao Qi look up in surprise, and after a moment he exclaimed in surprise.
"Young Master?!"
"Um."
Ji Yunzhi nodded, then looked at Jiang Han again.
"Sister Han, didn't you say you were hungry just now? Then take a rest in the manor first and make do with the simple food. Once my followers have dealt with the trouble, I'll take you back home after they get here, okay?"
Jiang Han wanted to say no.
Who doesn't have a few followers? Her brain wasn't there to be used as a decoration. She was inexplicably robbed and attacked, and all the guards around her were tied up, and this guy suddenly jumped out and acted like a hero to save the damsel in distress?
Haha, Ji Yunzhi obviously wants to dig her up!
But when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
As a weak woman who couldn't even tie a chicken, she could only try her best to deal with it.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Master Ji, but there's no need to rest. If possible, could you please send a message home for me?"
She raised her hand and pointed at the sun.
"It's almost sunset, and I'm usually home by this time.
I had an accident today, and my parents are so worried at home. My grandparents are old, and I don't want them to worry about me.
Mr. Ji, could you please come to your house?"
"Of course, this is as it should be."
Ji Yunzhi walked into the gate of the manor, turned around and acted like a host, waving his hand and sleeves to invite the guests.
"Sister Han, please."
“…Thank you.”
Having been exposed, even if the situation was stronger than the person, she didn't dare to tear her face off. Jiang Han thought about her family's current status and position, and she believed that Prime Minister Ji would not dare to make a mortal enemy with her sister and her father!
The guards around her were chosen by her father and then her sister. They were definitely not good-for-nothings. Just wait here and they'll definitely find you.
After convincing herself to calm down, Jiang Han pretended to be calm, lifted her skirt and walked into the farm.
On the other side, in Prince Shun's Mansion, Li Jingxiu almost went crazy when he learned that Han Jie'er was missing!
"What's going on? Tell me!"
He grabbed Jiang Han's personal bodyguard with an anxious and cruel look, his whole body filled with murderous coldness.
"Your Highness Prince Shun, please don't be so anxious. Let my guards go. She's already seriously injured and she's suffocating. What else can she say?"
How could Jiang Yao not be anxious when his silly second son was missing? But no matter how anxious he was, he still had some sense and knew that he should quickly get useful information from the person who ran back to report the news.
He also asked hurriedly about rescuing his own secret guards from Prince Shun's hands.
"What happened? Do you know who the enemy is? Where did my second sister get lost? How long has she been missing?"
"My Lord,"
Lu Qiao took a deep breath to steady his dizzy body, pinched the wound on his thigh hard to stay calm, and then he could reply quickly.
"It was around 3 p.m. when a group of bandits suddenly appeared at the intersection of Shili Lane. Judging from their attire, they looked like bandits, but I'm certain they were no mere rabble.
Those guys must be someone's guards. They look well-trained, their moves are very methodical. And one of them is very skilled, even better than me.
I was defeated and was entangled by him, so someone took advantage of the opportunity and drove away the young lady..."
She was really seriously injured, but she thought about how that silly lady had disregarded the danger and picked up her seriously injured and dying self on the roadside.
Lu Qiao pinched the wound again with a wooden face. She wanted to try her best to finish explaining what she had thought of.
"They should have gone east of the city. About an hour has passed. Sir, please take people to look for them as soon as possible..."
Before he could finish his words, he collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on.
"Someone, call the court doctor to treat her injuries!"
Li Jingxiu waved his sleeves and walked away.
"Call all the guards in the palace and follow me!"
"yes!"
Except for the Concubine Dowager who kept it a secret for the time being, all the forces of the Shun Palace came out in full force. Li Jingxiu jumped on his horse and rode anxiously towards the east of the city.
Jiang Yao followed while instructing his followers to hurry back to the mansion to call for help, not to tell the old man and the old lady, let alone his wife, but to go to his father for help.
